The canyon is beautiful and we were lucky with perfect weather! Also, I was a solo traveler and he was so comfortable and natural company for the trip! As a person who asks a lot of questions, it would’ve been cool if he knew a bit more about the geology, history, and plant/animal life of the area, but to be fair, that was not a part of the tour! Everything…”
